Several years ago (1996 to be
exact) our department got a new boss - Rich Weiler MS, RRT. He made what
he thought to be a harmless suggestion - to substitute words to Christmas
songs and give them a Respiratory type of spin, and present them at the
December staff meeting. Being slightly off kilter, we jumped at the
chance. Thus, as act was born. We presented songs, both Christmas and
non-Christmas related at each December staff meeting from 1996 to 1999,
and also gave "in-services" at times during the summer months. We also
tried our hand at writing original songs. We decided to retire the act
following the 1999 session, feeling that we had said all that we had
intended to say when we began our descent into madness. This web site –
RTLYRICS.COM - is composed of some of the better numbers we managed to
come up with. It is our hope that you will find something entertaining and
amusing within our web site. We have also included a text piece that
outlines the trials and tribulations we went through when we submitted an
article that was published in the trade magazine Advance for Respiratory
Care Practitioners, which we call The Advance Saga, as well as a poem we
wrote the year following our “retirement.”
